Ah, Fall...almost!

I need to get my booty in gear and catch up on my blogging...that will come, eventually! Growing up in the Midwest I dreaded fall, and all that came with it. Was it that school was starting? The fact that it was going to get really cold, really fast? The many layers of clothing required to deal with that weather? The requirement of shoes on my feet? Probably all of that, and then some! Now that I live in my dream location (how many years did I say that I was going to move here?!) I do "miss" fall. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE the heat and the ability to wear flip flops almost everyday! I miss picking apples and looking at the leaves, and definitely miss Buehler's cider & cider donuts! The smells in the stores as they have their fall sales (enticing you with fall candles and yummy treats.) Each year we take a trip back to visit family and get our "fall fix". It's always so pretty driving through the mountains, looking at all of the colors. The cool weather for the visit is enough for us. This year, we're not going. I'm too pregnant to make the trek up there. The hormones (and allure of temps below 90) are getting to me. So, my loyal followers that still live up there...please post pictures of the leaves! And enjoy some cider for me! (We have cider here, but it's so processed that it is NASTY!) You're always more than welcome to come visit, please bring some Buehler's cider & donuts with you! :)
